Hi Andrea. The elastic is fold over elastic from Joann's believe it or not. You can find it in the elastic section on the notions wall. They have a number of fun prints. Just be aware that the patterned elastics come in rather small yardages. I bought 3 pkgs. for my bottoms as I didn't want to piece it. So take coupons!!

Love the fabric and so impressed by your ingenuity for that shelf bra. And late but still heartfelt thanks for the sewing news. I am at my weekend sewing retreat and am showing off your sweet largesse.

A sewing retreat sounds like heaven! Have a wonderful time. And I am so happy that you are enjoying the magazine :) A little note, you taught me a new word!! I had to look up largesse. Learning something new makes it not only a good day, but an enriching one as well. Thanks :)
